On December 19, 1941, in Eluet El Asel, about 400 men from the 1st Royal Carabinieri Battalion Paratrooper faced the assault of 4 battalions of Indian troops of the British Army. Jumping from their trenches by launching improvised devices, the "Desert Lions", as Radio London called them, made the defensive line impenetrable by allowing thousands of Italian-German troops to withdraw safely. This was the first page in the long history of Italian paratroopers.

The Tuscania Paratrooper Regiment asked that the Extra Ratio T911 be specifically made as a commemorative knife for its 80th anniversary.

The T911 is a medium-sized folding light and designed for professional use by military operators. It is equipped with a modified spear point blade, flat edge, in Bohler N690 cobalt steel heat-treated to a hardness of 58 HRC, for the best compromise between strength, ease of regrinding and thread hold. The blade is 76 mm long, 4 mm thick, has a stone washed finish and rotates around an adjustable pin which allows to obtain the best fluidity in opening. A brace allows you to lock the pin in the best position.

The handle is in Anticorodal aluminum alloy with high strength black anodized finish and is milled to facilitate the transition from "reverse grip" handle to saber handle.

The blade is opened by means of a pin operated with the thumb. The knife uses a liner lock type blade lock and a safe ensures maximum hold even during heavy use. The safety lever is colored red for better visibility and engages in an advanced position for more instinctive use.

In the handle are integrated a seat belt cutter with easily available and replaceable cutter-type blade, a tungsten glass breaker, a stainless steel knot loosener and a screwdriver for adjusting the pointing optics, in AISI 420 steel. The clip , reversible and fixed at the end of the handle, allows a very deep port in the pocket, for less visibility.

The knife can be dismantled for cleaning and maintenance. With a total length of 194 mm and a weight of 145g, the T911 is easy to wear both in uniform and in civilian clothes.

The Ant is the most compact among Extrema Ratio's folding knives. Despite its small size, this model features an extremely sturdy, durable, and reliable structure.

The Ant Rescue, unlike other versions, has a cheek piece in red coloration that allows the operator to more easily locate the knife in case of a fall. This version is equipped with a specific serration that allows cutting ropes and even high-tensile aramid materials. Moreover, this model has a tapered tang that serves as an emergency screwdriver. The Ant Rescue has been developed according to the needs expressed by the "Italian Army Alpine Troops School".

The handle is made of two different elements: the cheek piece crafted from anodized anticorodal aluminum and the hardened steel frame which also serves as the blade lock (Frame Lock System). This mechanism involves a part of the frame bending inward to firmly secure the blade in the open position, enhancing the user's safety during the knife's use.

The tang features a hole for the insertion of a lanyard, and on the right side of the handle, there is a steel clip that allows for concealed carry in the pocket.

The Ant is available in 4 versions with two different types of steel, both provided by Böhler, an Austrian company with which Extrema Ratio has been collaborating for over 20 years, using its highly esteemed materials for the production of its blades.

For the Stone Washed M390 version, Extrema Ratio uses Böhler M390 steel, thermally treated to 61 HRC, which, thanks to a powder metallurgy production process, ensures cutting effectiveness, wear resistance, and oxidation resistance over time.

The blade is sheep foot-shaped and has a small hole on the top part to facilitate opening. Its particular structure, with a straight edge, allows the user to comfortably rest their fingers on the back of the knife and use it with ease.

Ferrum Rescue is a tool designed for rescue operations, developed in collaboration with my friend Andrea Micheli, military and law enforcement expert, journalist and shooting instructor. Made with a very compact handle, this rescue tool is equipped with 3 blades, each of which has a specific function:

The first and main blade has a thickness of 3 millimeters and is designed to be used for more demanding purposes and to protect the cutting edge of the other two from premature wear. The teeth allow it to cut larger ropes or textile materials, the remaining smooth part has the classic function of a knife. The second blade is a scalpel, which can be used for extremely precise cuts and for emergency first aid interventions. The third blade, on the back of the first, is the smallest of the 3, it has the function of cutting lines, capable of cutting paracord and aramid material.

The interaction of the main blade with the scalpel allows the operator to make a quick emergency cut to free any injured person from his or her clothing.

The line cutter blade and the scalpel are both interchangeable.

Ferrum Rescue has a slim and compact shape, the two anodized anticorodal aluminum grips make up a light, slender and at the same time very resistant handle. It can be housed in a breast pocket, in small flashlight holsters or inside a single loop of the M.O.L.L.E. system. On the back there is also a hard metal glass breaker.

Equipped with a flipper assisted opening system, the blade rotates on ball bearings which allow a smooth and uncertain movement of the blade. This mechanism allows the operator to open the blade quickly and easily, even with just one hand. The locking system adopted is the well-tested liner lock. The reversible clip is positioned on the back.

The reversible clip is positioned on the back.

ABOUT THE STEEL

More than just a damask, Coreless steel made by Japanese Takefu Steel comes with over 70 layers of VG10 and VG2 stainless steel welded, forged and coated between them so that you can form a lightweight, slim and durable blade with a spectacular damask outer pattern.

The peculiarity of Coreless steel, unlike conventional rolled steel or Japanese San-Mai, is that it does not have a hard core steel that is used for the cutting edge but has both the VG10 and VG2 steels arranged to form the cutting edge so alternating and sequential to each other.

This particular construction gives the blade - compared to the two steels that make it, individually taken - greater resistance to oxidation, higher surface hardness (up to 61.5HRC), 25% more than cutting capacity, 25% more than the wire hold capacity and 25% more resilience making the blade more robust and less subject to breakage.

Thanks to this latest steel, Takefu Steel has been rewarded on Japanese territory for research and development and innovation in the cutting-edge landscape. Coreless steel has already been chosen by major brands such as Kai and Mcusta Zanmai who since 2017 proposed it on their top productions of professional kitchen knives.

Until the early years of the '900 was commonly carry in your pocket a boxcutter by utility but, with a succession of cases of "misuse" of these objects, the law imposed the cutting or cutting-off of the tip of the blade to limit the harmfulness . Someone thought it well to take full advantage of the cutting edge of a blade typically already checked, taking as a pocket knife a straight razor, which became for a certain period of time a feared defensive tool.
